‘I Don’t Know How Much More They Can Take’: Trump Says the War With Iran Will Not Go On Much Longer
Trump said Tehran cannot withstand military and economic pressure forever as renewed U.S. strikes and shipping attacks keep talks on hold.
- President Donald Trump said Wednesday that Tehran cannot sustain mounting economic and military pressure much longer, claiming the conflict will end soon. Vice President JD Vance admitted Thursday he didn't know when it would conclude.
- Joint U.S.-Israeli strikes launched February 28 initiated the conflict that has persisted over six months, though a June memorandum of understanding between Washington and Tehran failed to produce lasting peace.
- Energy prices surged dramatically, with Brent crude above $97 per barrel compared with around $65 before the war, while Iran's rial weakened to 2.2 million per dollar and shipping transits dropped to 102 vessels weekly from 125 daily.
- Negotiations remain frozen as administration officials demand Iran halt attacks on commercial shipping before talks resume, while analyst Jason Campbell said the Trump administration appears willing to tolerate a stalemate through blockades and periodic strikes.
- Republicans acknowledged the conflict will likely persist through November midterms, while critics including former British ambassador Nicholas Hopton argued military action alone cannot produce Iranian surrender, with reformist journalist Ahmad Zeidabadi asserting diplomacy offers better prospects.
